Maybe taboo?
So, this is jumping ahead a little, but if all goes well with this pregnancy, my DH has agreed to have a vasectomy. So, my questions are: anyone have any recommendations of who to see (is this done by a urologist?) 2) Should I still take some form of birth control, just to be sure, or is this a pretty guaranteed thing? I have heard that it is pretty much 100%, but if you have any thoughts that you would like to share, I am all ears. (I have heard that you need to, hmmm... give it a few times before you are good to go).
Not trying to pull out info from those uncomfortable sharing, just thought I would ask, since I saw the IUD post (I would do that, but I am old, and we are settled with only wanting 2 kids).

No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
Re: Maybe taboo?
my husband went to dr. glowacki at the iowa clinic. it was an outpatient, 20-minute procedure and a weekend with frozen peas
. his doc advised a 3-4 month of continuing birth control, and also recommended he do a semen sample to rest our minds (because it's not 100%).
he liked the bed-side manner of his doc (obviously he was a bit scared and uncomfortable!). in the middle of the procedure my husband said, "So, how many have you done?" and Dr. Glowacki said, "Shouldn't you have asked me before I started?" hehe.
That is awesome!
He sounds like a personable guy (and that is a good thing in his line of work, I am sure!). Thanks for the reply, nice to know that it isn't worse than that. 20 mins is WAY shorter than I thought it would take!!!
Oh, dear God!!! Can you imagine!!! That would be a surprise!!!
